This “hard atomic” could store all the books written by humans in the size of a postage stamp, and although there is still work ahead, it points to a future in which such systems could definitely outrun technologies current storage, although there is still a major drawback: the speed of reading and writing.Continue reading →

Posted on by Gabriel Lowell
Moto G4 Plus

The initial reaction to the arrival of the new Moto G manufactured by Lenovo was uneven: the identity of that family created by Motorola disappeared now that Lenovo took the reins, and had a different bet. Probably more suited to the times, something that some users were reluctant to accept favorably.

In this Moto Plus G4 and G4 Moto normal design is conditioned by one of its distinctive features: the diagonal screen, which goes from 5 inches from the previous generation to 5.5 inches of these models.Continue reading →
